@Thomas – When I’m @ my favorite Tex-Mex place, this is what I order as well. Given the choice though, I think a nice American Pale Ale goes better with Mexican food. Or Indian for that matter!

Stay thirsty, indeed!

Ok, though I don’t buy Dos Equis Amber as often as I used to I still consider it a good beer. Its the mildest amber brew I’ve ever tasted (a mildness typical of Mexican beer I suppose). I never thought of throwing a lime in anything but a Corona Extra (or a Land Shark), but after patronizing a Mexican restaurant that had both Dos Equis styles on tap they kindly garnished my glass with a lime, so I dumped it into the beer and liked it! Though my taste buds have been spoiled by expensive Belgian/Belgian style beers with corks at the top of the bottles I won’t hesitate, when I’m eating Mexican food, to order a Dos Equis Amber!

XX is a good beer got introduced to at the all inclusive resort stayed at 2000 Cancun Mex. Good tasting beer. Plowed under bar couple times while there. Buy it at local store 10 years later =).

@cali-mike, I’ll agree, this was a horrible review! Looking back, it was one of my first so I hope you’ll forgive me (got to start someplace, right?)

Of course, taste varies from person to person and I think its cool if you believe Dos XX Amber to be a great beer, but if you’re comparing it to Budweiser then almost anything is really.

Not for nothing, but since we’ve started The Brew Club, I’ve probably tried 300 different beers from all over the world, and I sort of know a good beer when I’ve had one.

wow! horrible review! you really dont know a good beer when it slaps you in the face?
try reading a real review like one you find on beeradvocate.com. this beer is far superior
then any budweiser product and is one of mexicos best beers. also adding lime to this beer
absolutely ruins it.

I had this recently with some Mexican food and I'd agree it goes better with food than it was by itself! .-= Scott-TheBrewClub´s last blog ..Home Brew Kits – The Final Review =-.

I actually find Dos XX amber with a good shot of lime to be really good. It goes well with Latin food. One of my favorite drinks.
